Pain Free for Life: The 6-Week Cure for Chronic Pain--Without Surgery or Drugs Review


I was healed of back pain blamed on a herniated disc when I applied what I learned from Dr. John Sarno, who is Dr. Brady's mentor. Came across this book at the library as I was checking out other mind/body books.
If you are in pain and tired of the usual NSAIDS, physical therapy, etc. which do not work for you, read this book and apply it. Stress and how it affects the body is finally newsworthy; many physical conditions are explored in this book and are healed when applying these principles. Yes, it takes work and isn't as easy as taking a pill. But it's so worth having your life back without pain. I also like that Dr. Brady acknowledges the spiritual factor with the mind & body. Some may not care for that.
Are you a perfectionist? People-pleaser? One who does not show emotion and just "stuffs" everything? Yes, your personality can be causing your pain. Examining your life and doing some in-depth writing about yourself and situations is very relieving. The book has very good questions to ponder for self-examination. What do you have to lose but some emotional trash you've carried around--and your pain?
If you apply it, it will work for you too. It is time for people to embrace the mind and body together and stop treating them separately. Emotional health really does equal physical health. Oh, did I mention the high success rate from using this method?
There is a 20/20 clip where John Stossel explains this method and has himself been healed of chronic back pain by using the same principles.
True, it is not widely believed that our emotions can cause us physical pain; I do hope this type of information will get "out there" so more people will be able to be healed and enjoy their life. Those who learn about this and have it work wonders for them will want to shout it from the rooftops (like me).
I do realize that not everyone will accept that their emotions cause physical pain; we are very conditioned with the medical (physical) mindset. You can change that if you want to.

A Chronic Pain Management Manual: A guide for those who suffer and those who treat pain Review


This book is primarily intended to be used as an introductory reference for patients in pain as well as their family members. It also contains a great deal of information for the medically sophisticated patient or caregiver as well as certain topics that would be best understood by medical professionals or very medically sophisticated laymen such as medico-legal attorneys.

The people that will benefit most from this book will be patients and family members. This book puts complicated medical thought processes into simple, understandable terms. Few physicians or patients understand what happens when patients are referred to a "Pain Specialist". This book will help to teach basic concepts of pain management to Physicians, Nurses, Podiatrists, Dentists, Chiropractors and other allied health professionals. This book is not intended to make "Pain Specialists" out of these groups, but it can help them to understand what we do and why we do it.

This book contains frank discussions of the most common complaints that a pain practitioner sees and treats. It walks the reader through symptoms, etiology (cause), diagnostic steps and treatment approaches. It also addresses a multitude of misconceptions and myths associated with painful conditions and pain management. The format is unique in that it is written primarily for pain patients and their caregivers, and yet it contains enough detail to keep the interest of medical professionals and sophisticated laymen.
